This doesn't make any sense to me.
If it is a physical drive, then for it to work it needs to be plugged in (to power and SATA connector). If it is plugged in, then Windows auto-mounts the hard drive.
You don't need to use OSFMount and there is no purpose doing so.
Note that Windows doesn't read or write the EXT4 file system. No form of mounting will change this. You need to install additional EXT file system drivers or use a tool like OSForensics to directly parse the Linux file system in Windows.

OSFMount Mounting \\.\PhysicalDrive0 fails
I just like to mount physical Disk 1 in OSFMount to access some ext4 partition in there.
So I run:
Code:OSFMount -a -f \\.\PhysicalDrive0 -m g: -t file
Code:libcfile_file_read_buffer_with_error_code: unable to read from file with error: Falscher Parameter. libcfile_file_read_buffer: unable to read from file. libbfio_file_read: unable to read from file: \\.\PhysicalDrive0. libbfio_handle_read_buffer: unable to read from handle. libewf_check_file_signature_file_io_handle: unable to read signature. libewf_check_file_signature: unable to check file signature using a file handle. libcfile_file_read_buffer_with_error_code: unable to read from file with error: Falscher Parameter. libcfile_file_read_buffer: unable to read from file. libbfio_file_read: unable to read from file: \\.\PhysicalDrive0. libbfio_handle_read_buffer: unable to read from handle. libewf_check_file_signature_file_io_handle: unable to read signature. libewf_check_file_signature: unable to check file signature using a file handle. Creating device...
It is just passed as filename to CreateFile.
So maybe can ya look at OSFMount and try to fix the problem above to make OSFMount more universalTags: None
